Pork Fried Dumpling / 猪肉韭菜锅贴 (6 Pcs)
Ale A.

Casual ambience. Place for family or to grab a quick bite to eat. Food was made fresh and quick. This place is always busy. Great customer service. Affordable prices.

Gabe P.

Really solid hand pulled noodles. The food here is pretty excellent, especially since there are other good hand pulled noodle spots in the area. The space itself is really great and in a good location. Would rec during this cold weather!

Beef Brisket Dry-Mixed Hand Pull / 牛腩干拌拉面 - From another angle so you can see the tendon.
George M.

This is a solid noodle house. As you can see from other reviews, it is not for everyone. If you came here to get wings, you are in the wrong place. But if you came here for fresh pulled Chinese noodles, then this is a great spot for you. My go to is the Beef Combo Dry - Mixed with a Stewed Egg. Trust me, you can not go wrong with this one.

Beef Brisket Hand Pull Noodle Soup -
Khanh-Chau M.

I was surprised with how quick and simple service was, as well as the food! I ordered on the kiosk, sat down, and got my food maybe within five minutes. Note that if you order the hand pulled noodle soups spicy, they will just tell you to add the chili oil yourself. The beef brisket was so tender and juicy; it was so tasty. Noodles were a good combo with the beef. I thought the veggies that came with the soup were okay. Broth was fine too but adding the chili oil made it tastier. Overall quick and simple place with chill and casual vibes. Would come again if craving the noodles and in the area.

Great meal at a reasonable price. Thu's is a fast casual dinning place that makes your noodles on demand. Order on the kiosk and they bring the food to your table. Friendly service a delicious meal.

Beef Hand Pull Noodle Soup / 牛肉拉面

Very mid. Even if I didn't know what Lanzhou la mian was, the taste was forgettable, and I will not be eating here again. I walked in seeing the iconic metal noodle-making table and looked forward to a taste of my childhood. To my immense disappointment, I heard no thwacks from the table over my visit, and the noodles did not taste like lanzhou la mian or even like your standard niu rou mian. On top of that, i ordered the thick and spicy beef brisket noodles and got whatever the picture below was. Not brisket, and them noods were what I would have thought the standard thickness would have been. It tasted exactly how it looks: boring, bland, and without any spicy kick. I poured a little bit of vinegar into the broth and somehow it made it taste like a lukewarm liang mian. The popcorn chicken wasn't bad - tasted like Taiwanese popcorn chicken and was tender. It was the only saving grace from my visit.

Vegetable & Tofu Stir Fried Noodles + Steam Vegetables Bun
Puja P.

The food was so good I forgot that camera eats first. They came out with our food super quickly and nice and hot. Me and my friend both dug into our dishes and we loved how tasty it was. They have soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil on the table to add separately. I loved adding the chili oil which added that extra kick I enjoy and to my liking. The chili oil and soy sauce also paired well with the steamed vegetable buns. I wish they had small little bowls/plates we can pour the soy sauce into for convenience of dipping into for the buns, but it wasn't too big of an issue. We went around 6PM on a Sunday evening and every table was packed. I noticed a lot of people decide to take takeout too. It's located in a nice complex where you can walk around the lake and check out other shops/dessert places/movies/etc. This place is definitely worth trying if you're in the area!

Pork Wonton With Homemade Spicy Sauce
Dwayne J.

So addicting I'm glad I took the time to try out these pork wontons. They were spicy salty vinegary and delicious and just under $10 this is a quick bite if you're ever at the new Washingtonian Rio. I used to live around here and seeing more restaurants and shops there is really amazing

Vegetable & Tofu Knife-Slice Stir Fried -
Kimberly S.

When the noodle craving calls, Lanzhou is ready! Enjoyed the simplicity of the digital ordering system - getting our food was simple and the wait wasn't bad. Plenty of seating for small groups - larger ones might be a problem, but not impossible. We both ordered vegetarian dishes - mine the soup and his the dry noodles. Both amazing. Love the umami and balance of flavors. We really don't come here enough!

Happy to see his nood soup still killing it and winning awards. Order the #1. Add some chili oil. Try a side or two. That's all you need. I personally like noodles, my kid loves belt style, my wide loves knife cut. They do it all and don't miss on flavor.

I got the Scallion Oil Noodles - chewy, hand pulled noodles in a smooth oil dressing. Pair it with the chili oil kimchi for a nice contrasting crunch. My favorite, however, was the Tofu with Century Egg Salad - a small bowl with cubes of soft tofu and quartered century egg and chili oil. Lots of textures and tastes thrown into a tiny little bowl. Be careful - as proof that this place is authentic, their "vegan" vegetable tofu noodle soup is served in beef broth. But once you hammer out the details of the ingredients, the taste is worthwhile. Plenty of others feel the same way - we arrived when they just opened for the day, so we got a seat, but by the time we left, there was a line out the door. If you haven't tried Chopin Noodle House yet, you're missing out!

There are many menu items that I would like to try. Overall, I think it's worth a visit. It's conveniently located and the prices are fairly reasonable.

That said, I probably wouldn't come back. I felt extremely thirsty after getting home, which made me think the dishes were pretty heavy on MSG. They also forgot the wide noodles we ordered and only brought them out later. By then, they hadn't been cooked together with the tomato broth, so it completely missed the essence. In terms of value, we only ordered three set meals plus one extra wide noodles, and the total came out to over a hundred. For what we got, the value felt pretty average. We then went to another restaurant in the next day, ordered six dishes plus drinks, and still spent less --with much more variety in flavors.

Unfortunately, the service lacked considerably. On top of that, we felt rushed out around 9pm because we were told the kitchen was closing, even though the other restaurants at the waterfront were still open, packed, and clearly operating normally. The food was very hit or miss. A few items were good, like the sauteed string beans, some dishes were just okay, but most of what we ordered was greasy, bland, and not very enjoyable. The noodles were dry and rubbery, and the dumplings and egg rolls were overly greasy and unapealing. The best way to describe it is Chinese buffet-quality food served to you at a table. For the price and location, I expected much better.
